I’m Beautiful Like Me.

Friday Night Knitting at Grinny Possum is awesome. It’s usually on the last Friday of the month, but due to the upcoming holiday season, starting next month it will be on the first Friday of the month. So I get it two weeks in a row! Yay!

There were some new (to me) faces - including two men. How cool to kick it with crafty guys! I hope to see them more often.

Once again, I received generous assistance turning the heel and picking up the gusset of my second sock.

Knitters are the best!

Some fun shots from Tuesday night at Sunergos. 

BakerX with her totally adorable boy Sam, who was too shy to pose properly with Elevena and I.

He’s such a mellow babe, but he is quickly approaching that age where it will be impossible for his mama to join us with any expectation of having fun if he is in tow.

Trust me. That’s why mine stays at home!

Sonnie and her daughter, O. I wish I could remember what they are looking at!

My very first knit finished object (FO)! Pictured here complete with a yummy mocha latte and a book. What more could one need for a little joy in life?
 

Let me model it on for you.

Now if only I had another for the other foot. It’s coming together. Slowly.
 

On Wednesday, I invited Big Rob over for dinner. I made Hot Browns. This was my second attempt and lemme tell you, they turned out so much better this time. The secret was a half teaspoon Lea & Perrins and a quarter cup cheddar cheese.

Yesterday was nearly as bad as Monday. Left at home with the baby for the first time in weeks while trying to balance the chemistry in my brain was frustrating to say the least. Buddha was having one of those Nothing-Will-Make-Me-Happy days. By the time Husband got home from work, I was ready to clock off.

I nearly decided not to go to knit night but I wanted to escape the baby so badly… Needless to say, I wasn’t sorry I went. I really cannot overstate how wonderful these gals are and how positively just meeting them has impacted my life. They have brought so much into my life - knowledge, joy, friendship and a real sense of sisterhood. They are the kindest and most generous group of ladies I’ve known in a very long time. One of the ladies that has trouble getting out on Tuesdays due to work called Sonnie’s phone to talk to me about my meds and gave me some resources to look into. How farkin’ sweet is that!?
